New to the list and delighted to see one for Porter Co.. I was born in
Valparaiso and have many ties there though I haven't been back for many
years. The surnames I'm researching in the area are:
KNAPP
BRANT
MCCURDY
WEYANT
GRIFFEN
MOENCH
AUCK
PFERSICK
Also, to let list members know, I have just finished indexing Goodspeeds
History for Porter Co. and would gladly do look ups for anyone
interested. I have some 6-7,00 entries for the county. For those not
familiar with the book, it chronicles the development of the NW area of
the state before there were counties. I'm working on the section for
Lake County but am not done yet, but would gladly look through what I
have. There is a lot of overlapping of families between the two
counties.
I have a few queries to post but will do so separately from this message.
